## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does it perform on am/mw?**
A: For me it worked fantastic. Got a far better signal on FM and DAB. Now I can drive with very little loss if any on DAB.

**Q: I want to extend the threaded connector through the vehicle roof as my motorhome has a double roof.  What is the thread size M10?**
A: Hi. Just bought this for our MH with the intention of fitting inside within the overhead of the cab.
Hadn't thought about extending the thread, great idea!
Did you do this? Any chance of a link to the thread extender you used?
Did you run a wire to the chassis for the groundplane?
Thanks

**Q: Can this aerial be fitted on the body above the wheel arch of a Motorhome**
A: Ithink it is designed to fit on a flat surface,I have mine fitted on the roof of a vauxhall vectra estate ,I removed the old arial and this fitted in the whole,difficult part was feeding wires through to the front.I fitted my radio ariel in my motor home through the roof inside the wardrobe and then down to the back of the radio ,it was'nt a dab radio hope this helps

**Q: Where do i connect the red power cable to on a 2012 berlingo?**
A: Any switched live will do

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked first time.
*by A***R on 27 July 2023*

Bought this item as a last resort, but should have been my first go to!Don't bother with window stickers, or Antenna upgrade to your factory one as there no good.Fitting this one was a bit of a challenge, probably took me 2 hours in total. Its easy enough to pick up a live connection on the back of the radio once all cables rooted through headliner and trims into dash area.Step drill ideal to open up the antenna mounting hole on my Citroën Picasso. Make sure you paint any exposed metalwork before fitting the base in position...Connected everything up and got almost 30 DAB channel's almost immediately and 100% stable signal since. Would highly recommend this antenna system. I have a Pioneer head unit and it all works as I hoped it would and its a £200 mod to an older car...brings the radio bang upto date. The days of sketchy am radio 5 on a Saturday afternoon now a thing of the past!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fixed the fuzz!
*by O***E on 7 November 2019*

This aerial has completely fixed the reception issues I had with my dab adaptor. The adaptor came with a windscreen mounted aerial on the inside of the vehicle which I found to be next to useless. This aerial I've had fitted now for over a month and only had perhaps one momentary blip in that time. Otherwise, the reception has been perfect driving everywhere town and country.Fitting-wise, you need to be bold. I had to remove the roof trim above my head in my Toyota van and drill a hole in the roof. Measure twice, cut once here. It's helpful to get someone to help here while you tighten up the nut, then it's a case of finding the best routing back to your radio or adaptor, and pop all the trims back, but give it a test before you do.For the power, I spliced mine into the switched power to the radio(usually a red wire) and it works perfectly.I had to buy a little adaptor kit to make the lead fit into my dab adaptor but this was only a few quid. In my case, the aerial is on the front part of the roof of my van. If I need to carry any wide and flat loads, the aerial just unscrews, so nice and easy to temporarily remove.Great product at a bargain price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best DAB car aerial I have tried
*by P***S on 14 November 2017*

I tried several different DAB car aerials before this one: I tried a booster/splitter which attached to my factory installed aerial, a JVC aerial which was DAB only and a Celsus DAB/FM/AM aerial.This is the best of the lot!The splitter either didn't work or didn't boost the signal enough so I got nothing from it. By comparison, the JVC aerial was powered by my car radio's powered SMB aerial socket and gave fantastic DAB reception but I had no FM or AM reception. The Celsus gave very good DAB and FM reception but no AM at all and the DAB aerial didn't work from the powered SMB connection, it only worked when the power lead was connected to the battery.This one does everything I wanted from all those others! The DAB reception is as good as the JVC, DAB can be powered by the car radio's SMB connector and the FM/AM reception is the best I've ever had in the car (the power cable needs to be connected to the battery to get that). It took a while to get there but I finally found the DAB aerial I was looking for - I've never had a dropout on reception.The only tricky part was that the bottom of the aerial is not flat, there's a round section around the fixing bolt that was bigger than the square hole my old aerial used. The round section is not that deep (maybe 2-3mm), but it meant that the aerial didn't sit flat and I preferred not to drill out a bigger hole in my roof so I cut out some thin rubber matting to size in order to seal the bottom of the aerial and get it to sit properly on the roof. Also, the fixing bolt that pokes through the hole wasn't as long as on the old aerial and so it took a little frustration to get the nut started but once it was fitted, it has worked perfectly.
